La Tache 2002Domaine de la Romanee Conti
Magnum (1)

"This is still rather reserved though determined swirling
reveals a nose that is exceptionally fine and pure with fantastic
aromatic detail and an almost diaphanous transparency of expression
that reveals all of the kaleidoscopic La Tâche spice box nose,
including anise, clove, plums, high-toned black cherry, crushed red
raspberry and more. The broad, expansive and powerful flavors are
still on the strict side with a mid-palate of massive depth yet the
finish is round, generous, sappy and superbly complex culminating
in a finish that lasts for minutes. Despite the aromatic fireworks
and opulent character, there is an underlying tenderness here that
suggests that this will be approachable relatively early but the
balance is so fine that this should easily age for 30 years,
perhaps longer." (96 pts. Allen Meadows, Burghound #45, Jan.
2012)
